With some terrific day trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to soak up all that Joplin, 18 miles away, has to offer. Webb City Farmers Market, Cunningham Park and Candy House Chocolate Factory alone make the drive out here worthwhile. Located 25 miles away, Grove is another popular tourist destination. If you drop by, make sure you check out Grand Lake O’ the Cherokees, Har-Ber Village and The Cayuga Mission Church.
